ROBOTICS CAMP PLAN Evan Henson, Arthur Cooper, Patrick Goodwin, Michael Lucas, Trevor Swiggard, Nick Leyba

About the Camp  Camp dates: July 14, 15,  Our group worked with STARS members  Wickus Nienaber  Randy Flood  Leanne Galleta  Our purpose was to inspire our camp members from Nim’s Middle School to be interested in Math, Science, and Technology with Lego’s Mindstorms

Time Frame  June Meetings  Organized the schedule of who can work which days.  Came up with different challenges.  Built a few robots and programmed them.  Built maze walls from 2x4s and “L” brackets.  Found different examples of robot videos from Youtube to help show the kids different types of robots and different applications.

Time Frame cont.  July  Camp Day 1 (July 14) Introduction/Robotic History Introduction to Motion and Input & Output  Camp Day 2 (July 15) Introduction to Sensors Navigation of Maze via Touch and Ultrasonic Sensors  Camp Day 3 (July 19) Review Line Follow via Color Sensor

Time Frame cont.  Camp Day 4 (July 20) Bluetooth Communication Built Dancing Robot  Camp Day 5 (July 21) Dancing Robot Competition Built Alpha Rex (Walker Robot)  Camp Day 6 (July 22) Finished Building Alpha Rex Racing Walker Robot Competition

What Did We Do?  We did a lot of planning.  Lesson Plans/Slides.  Explored Mindstorm NXT software.  During the Camp  Kept the kids focused on building and programming the robots.  Assisted the kids with any questions about building and programming the robots.

Lessons Learned  Initially had issues with the NXT software.  Bluetooth slowed down the Macs.  Had to use USB cables.  Difficult to keep the kids all focused at once.  About half were really interested in doing the challenges.  The other half built ball shooters and tried to distract the ones that wanted to work.  Competitions with candy prizes worked fairly well.  Kids were very intimidated with the more advanced programs.

Going Forward  The next group will have the basics done.  The next group could condense what we did over the 6 days into probably 4 or 5 to make room for a creative robot project for the last day.  The next group could explore the more complex programs and find ways to make the more advanced things less intimidating.
